"so you're telling me that I have to translate this while I groan in discomfort?" I asked, Clarke nod then she cut her palm

"Woah... why would you cut yourself for?!" I urged as I grasped her hand into mine attempting to stop the bleeding. as she held a bowl underneath

"well. like your comrade, we must use my blood. don't move while I apply it to you" she announced keeping my chin steady.

I watched as Clarke soaked her finger into the bowl moreover lightly traced a line down from the midst of my face, my temples to my jaw. embracing the highest side of my nose. she suddenly stood up clutching my hand with her.

"what now?" I suggested studying her eyes.

she presented a small case. bounded a blue chip with an infinity emblem on the axis.

"you mentioned... several have performed this..right?" I examined and she nods. clarke is staying quite. extra quite and I don't like it. she's frightened by something. her hands are a bit trembling. her hands were moist.

"I don't have to devour that, right?" I spoke earning her laugh a little she next told me to turn and face the thrones

"are you ready?" she asked moving my hair. her fingers felt cold against my neck.

"will this be the painful part?" I sought

she needed a moment before answering "unfortunately no... it will hurt however its nothing compared to the distress your about to handle"

she cleared her throat.

my subconscious exploding with thoughts. what if I don't make it out alive, what if I slip... my destiny would have been a myth....what if I just leave and never come back here. possibly then id have a chance at survival.

I turned a to face Clarke. her eyes engage mine. the moon shined through the window and it's nearly time to begin. clarke just stood there looking at me. what if this is the last time I see her?

if I die... she'll be left to blame for my death. she might even succumb her power. something came over me. something made me lean closer, whisper "whatever happens after this... I'm glad I met you, Clarke" a tear formed in my eyes. I begged for it not to fall. clarke startled me by enclosing her arms around me.

"May We Meet Again" she choked on the tears she was crying.... her voice gave me a small smile during the moments of a sudden fear of letting go...why was she crying? is it because she is leading me to my death? or conceivable she witnessed this countless times and she knows it will happen to me too? she might just remember all the lives wasted because of this test. we withdrew and I shifted realizing the moon is solely seconds away from being ready.

"ready," I summon looking at Titus.

he gave me a nod moreover looked into my eyes with sadness. he understood this must be done. his face persisted emotionless just like the dark-skinned lady next to him

octavia occupied still by the door and lichon on the opposite side. raven drew her eyes away from mine and looked at the screen controlling the cameras in the room. I didn't even realize she had them here.

"its time," Clarke said. I allow my eyes to gaze forward. watching through the window. I listened to Clarke's breathing pattern.

without a warning, she placed something warm behind my neck and it slowly descended under my skin and deeper into my muscles tissues. an electromagnetism feeling expelled through my backbone. my breathing got heavier as Clarke backed out of the circle following titus's order. I assumed the chip creating circuit alike connecting itself to my spine. another convolution of shock shot up my ray. this time it operated the extensive part of my brain. a scream escaped my throat. and "lexa?!" Clarke yelled out my name
